What is Mathematics (cont.)• It helps to develop mental processes that enhance logical and critical thinking, accuracy and problem-solving that will contribute to decision-making.
• Mathematical problem solving enables us to understand the world (physical, social and economic) around us, and, most of all, to teach us to think creatively.
